1. The Client Who Sought a Suncheon Divorce Litigation Attorney

This is the account of the client who sought a Suncheon divorce litigation attorney and asked for help in divorcing her husband.

About 20 years ago, the client studied makeup in Japan and worked at a makeup shop.

The client stayed in Japan on a tourist visa, a student visa, and the like, but she experienced inconvenience because the visas were valid for only short periods.

The makeup shop where the client worked was run by a Korean couple. Seeing the client troubled over her period of stay, the Korean couple introduced her to a Japanese man in exchange for an introduction fee.

The client then filed a marriage registration with that man and obtained a marriage visa valid for one year.

For the sake of the marriage visa, the client registered only the same address for about one year and did not cohabit; the marriage was a sham entered into solely for the marriage visa.

One year after obtaining the marriage visa, the client left her job and returned to Korea.

Before returning, the client asked the Korean couple who had introduced the man to handle the divorce procedures, but they said they no longer wished to be involved and blocked the client's contact.

Because the client knew nothing at all about the man's personal information or contact details, she sought the assistance of a Suncheon divorce litigation attorney.

2. International Divorce Explained by a Suncheon Divorce Litigation Attorney

The client of the Suncheon divorce litigation attorney was in a situation where a marriage registration had been filed through a sham marriage with a Japanese man.

In this case, because the client had married a spouse of a different nationality, the international divorce procedure had to be considered.

When an international divorce is pursued, if one of the spouses has a habitual residence in the Republic of Korea, the divorce procedure is carried out in accordance with the law of the Republic of Korea.

Because the client of the Suncheon divorce litigation attorney was currently residing in the Republic of Korea, she decided to file the divorce suit in accordance with the divorce procedure of the Republic of Korea.

Divorce Litigation Explained by a Suncheon Divorce Litigation Attorney
